Hans BELLMER (1902-1975) - Lot 1
Hans BELLMER (1902-1975) Untitled (Portrait of Nora Mitrani) 1943-1947 Pencil on airbrush paper Size: 15 x 23 cm Provenance: Geneviève et Jean-Paul Kahn sale: Pierre Bergé & Associés, Bibliothèque Geneviève et Jean-Paul Kahn II, October 9, 2020. Private collection, France. Hans Bellmer was a provocative German artist renowned for his disturbing and psychological contribution to 20th-century Surrealism. Famous for his life-size dolls and the photographic series they spawned, Bellmer challenged prevailing ideals of physical beauty and authoritarian control through a deeply personal and controversial body of work. His singular visual language - marked by fragmented forms, erotic tension and a fascination with the unconscious - confronted social taboos and explored the complex interplay between desire, power and identity.
